The Creative Cities Convention was founded in 2018 in response to the rapid growth of the screen sector outside London, echoing a desire felt across the political and industry spectrum to better reflect communities across the UK. We're an annual event and visit a different city each year.

The CCC is the UK’s only meeting place for creative people working in film, TV and digital outside London

The full programme will be released a few weeks before the event. Stay tuned for updates on our website and socials or sign up to our newsletter to receive the latest information.

The Creative Cities Convention will take place from 6th - 7th May, 2026. Mark your calendars and prepare for an inspiring experience. We look forward to welcoming you!

The Skills Summit is not in the same venue as the CCC but is in a venue very nearby to allow skills summit delegates access to the conference marketplace and evening networking party. Venue details will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
